The Anti-Federalists demanded the Bill of Rights for the Constitution and the Federalists promised to give it to them, it did respond to the central Anti-Federalist fear that the Constitution would unleash an oppressive central government too distant from the people to be controlled by the Federalists. The original 13 states were Georgia, Maryland, Rhode Island, Delaware, Virginia, New York, Connecticut, New Jersey, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, New Hampshire, South Carolina and Massachusetes. And by the year of 1819, 7 states were added to this original 13, these were Tenessee, Kentucky, Ohio, Missisipi, Indiana, Illinois and Loiusiana.
